The DeathList 2012
The research is complete and DeathList 2012 is off and running. The list is drawn up to comprise the celebrities thought, in the opinion of the DeathList committee, most likely to expire during 2012. The basic rules are that candidates must be famous in their own right such that their death is expected to be reported by the UK media, however they cannot be famous purely for the fact they are likely to expire shortly. Usually a maximum of 25 candidates on the previous year’s list can reappear on the next list. DeathList scores in the last two years have been disappointing. Maybe medical science is progressing at a faster rate than the skills of the committee or maybe 2012 will see a return to form. Time will tell.| Rank | Prev Year |
